Get Baked! This ain’t your grandma’s embossing powders. Everything old is new again and that refers to art and crafts products too. In this full day workshop, we will be bringing EP into the 21st century. Using my collection of Baked Texture embossing powders from Emerald Creek, we will start by discussing the properties of EPs and reviewing traditional uses, such as stamping. Then we turn to the future and work with new ways to use this product. Examples include faux encaustics, custom blending and layering. We also cover cold applications and alternatives to embossing pads. Of course there will be art and you will create layered, textural and dimensional artworks, Baked Texture style.
